She decided on helping these children when she first saw conditions in Cambodia while filming Tomb Raider in 2001. Jolie was named a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador on August 27, 2001. In 2005, Jolie took part at a National Press Club luncheon, where she announced the founding of the National Center for Refugee and Immigrant Children, an organization that provides free legal-aid to asylum-seeking children with no legal representation which Jolie personally funded with a donation of $500,000 for its first two years.
Throughout all of these endeavors, Jolie has been making more green in movies to support all of her work outside the movies. Not only does making movies rake in the green, but her PR people work very hard to keep her in the news and magazines. Taking a look at People Magazine she’s mentioned four times in the past week. Her people really know how to keep the buzz up about her which impacts her celebrity immensely.
